Effect of clear-felling and harvest residue removal on nitrogen and phosphorus export from drained norway spruce mires in southern finland
(2015)Calibration-period/control-area approach was used to study nitrogen and phosphorus export from drained and productive Norway-spruce-dominated peatland forests follow- ing conventional stem-only and ... -
Effect of decomposition on physical properties of fibrous peat
(2014)Organic matter in peat deposits undergoes slow microbial decomposition, which causes permanent material change, including reduction in volume of solids, and is a significant factor in the development of creep settlements ... -
Effect of decomposition on the compressibility of fibrous peat
(American Society of Civil Engineers: Reston, VA, USA, 2012) -
Effect of friction fatigue on pile capacity in dense sand
(2007)The paper presents the results of a series of field tests performed to study the causes of friction fatigue experienced by displacement piles. Four instrumented model piles were installed at a dense sand test-bed site. The ... -
EFFECT OF POZZOLAN PROPERTIES ON THE PROPERTIES OF BUILDING COMPOSITES
(2010)Pozzolans were used by ancient civilizations to enhance the properties of mortars and concrete and are now regaining popularity as sustainable, environmentally-friendly alternatives to cement. This paper studies the ... -
Effect of salt grain additions on fibrous peat consolidation
(2015)Peat has been considered a problematic geotechnical material, with extremely high water content, low shear strength and high compressibility. Although initially high, fibrous peat undergoes dramatic reductions in permeability ... -
Effective stress testing of peat
(2013)Recent peat soil problems, including failures of dykes, foundations and slopes in peat deposits, have focused greater attention on understanding the mechanical behavior of peat. Stability calculations routinely involve ... -
Effectiveness of draught reduction measures at improving building air-tightness
(2018)The building sector has a serious detrimental impact on the environment and reducing building energy requirements is an important environmental priority. Draughts (unmanaged air infiltration and exfiltration in buildings) ... -
Effectiveness of granular columns in containing settlement
(2014)Laboratory-based research studies and full-scale evaluations of the behaviour of ground improved with granular columns are ample regarding bearing capacity, but limited in respect to the settlement response. This paper ...
